“Play” is a project that uses drawing and sculpture to explore the idea of play in relation to American values. By focusing my endeavors on the concept of zero-sum games, I display my own interpretation of childhood and competition as a starting block into the competitive, male biased, American culture that glorifies winners and rejects losers. I have created an inter-generational outlook of play by creating a playground that revolves around zero-sum games. These ideas are expressed through the concept of a playground, which I have presented as scale models and representational drawings.
